Breakfast casserole

Who doesn't love breakfast food??  There are so many different ways you can make eggs and then there is pancakes, waffles, sausage, bacon, toast, french toast, fruit, biscuits and gravy....and so many more!  We love to have breakfast for dinner probably every other week.  I think that is mostly because AJ and I usually have our shake for breakfast, which I love but that means I don't get all of that other yummy breakfast food.

At church we rotate who brings in breakfast for our small group.  I always try to make something healthy and then a little something sweet.  A couple of weeks ago I brought in an egg casserole and breakfast cookies that went over well and disappeared except for these 2 pieces that I got a picture of (after I took a bite!)

These egg casseroles are super easy to make and you can make it ahead of time if you need to.  You can easily reheat it or its even good cold :)


This one was thrown together pretty quickly and I used what I had on hand.  You can add any kind of protein or veggies you wanted and it would be delicious, but this simple combination was easy and delicious.

Preheat your oven to 375 degrees
Brown your breakfast sausage (I use Jennie-O turkey)
Place it in the bottom of a 9x13 dish
Dice up tomatoes into bite size pieces and layer over the top of the sausage
Shred Colby Jack cheese and sprinkle generously over the top of the sausage and tomatoes
Beat 11 eggs and season with salt and pepper (that is all I had, I'm sure 12 would be good too!)
Pour eggs over the top and season with Italian Seasoning and Parsley
Bake for 40 minutes
Let cool for a couple minutes to set and then serve warm.  Enjoy!

Happy 2017

Hey!  Happy New Year!!  I hope you had a fantastic Christmas and a safe and enjoyable time ringing in 2017! Our time was spent away from home but with family for Christmas.  We had a busy but wonderful time during the holidays!  The kids seemed to really enjoy time with their cousins they hadn't seen in a while and we got to enjoy time with each other. As a family we all must have decided that we would wear some shard of blue or green on Christmas Day! My family all seem to know me well and I got a lot of new workout tanks, pants and shirts for Christmas!!  I love them all!!  This one that my husband found fits me perfectly!   What were some of your favorite Christmas presents this year?  I love giving the gift of health - and my momma decided to pass that along to my sisters as well!  I'm so excited for all of them to be joining me this month in our health bet!  As fun as it is to receive and give gifts during the holida...

Venison Chili

I do believe that winter is officially here, much to my dismay 😄 I am pretty sure as I get older every year, I hate the cold more and more.  I did not used to mind the cold, and I still don't as long as there is snow on the ground.  Why else would it need to be so cold??? Anyway, when cold hits, I want as much warm food as I can get - chili, soups, stews, roasts.  Anything I can make in the crockpot is amazing!  We came back from Christmas with a lot of meat - our freezer is full!  And now we need to use it up making as many delicious foods as we can with our, straight from the butcher, meat!   If you didn't know, AJ is a hunter - but he really only hunts deer.  This year his dad got some ground venison and mixed it with pork.  Wow!! It is really good!  I am not a big fan of venison in general, but this combo turned out really yummy!  So we decided to make some chili with it and it was amazing!  According to AJ it was ...

Cookie dough balls

I saw this picture of what looked like cookie dough on my friends facebook page - she said she made it with Shakeology!  It absolutely looked amazing in the bowl, just like cookie dough.  And then she rolled it into balls for a quick snack - or in my kids case, BREAKFAST 😊 I modified her recipe a little bit and according to my husband I need to modify it a little bit more.  I thought they were good and the kids scarfed them down.  I guess if you don't like coconut at all, then you need to modify it as well - I'll tell you how I intend to but I can't promise anything at this point! Making these with Shakeology allows you to get 70+ amazing ingredients including superfoods, vitamins, protein, pre/probiotics, adaptogens, digestive enzymes....you know all that good for you stuff that most of us don't get on a daily basis and probably don't even know what it all is!  The way Shakeology is made though, the nutrients get delivered to you as a whole food (dri...
